The <strong>Fund</strong>’s investment strategy does include temporary defensive positions to protect investor from significant<br />
losses.<br />

may also invest into cash equivalent instruments as the main asset of the <strong>Fund</strong> to maintain low volatility.<br />

portfolio holdings. This will be reflected as in<strong>com</strong>e to the <strong>Fund</strong>. With that higher in<strong>com</strong>e distribution can be<br />
declared.<br />

(Source :Master Prospectus of Conventional <strong>Fund</strong>–Section 4)<br />
Specific risks associated with <strong>AMB</strong>DTF<br />
Individual equity risk<br />
<strong>AMB</strong>DTF is subject to the volatility of prices in the share market. The volatility of prices in each stock will affect<br />
the <strong>Fund</strong>’s value daily. The performance of individual stocks, which make up the portfolio, will fluctuate according<br />
to changes in the market value of the investments. The fluctuations can be significant in the short-term. This<br />
accounts for the market risk when investing in this <strong>Fund</strong>. However, this impact is minimised through portfolio<br />
diversification.<br />
Credit risk<br />
<strong>AMB</strong>DTF invests in fixed in<strong>com</strong>e securities, so its portfolio is subject to credit risk. This is the risk that the issuer<br />
of the security may default and not be able to make timely principal and interest payments on the security. The<br />
lower-rated corporate debt securities will normally have greater risk of defaults.<br />
3 Updated as at September 2014
Interest rate risk<br />
Fixed in<strong>com</strong>e securities are particularly sensitive to movements in interest rates. When interest rates rise, the<br />
value of fixed in<strong>com</strong>e securities falls and vice versa, thus affecting the NAV of the <strong>Fund</strong>. Furthermore, fixed<br />
in<strong>com</strong>e securities with longer maturity and lower yield coupon rates are more susceptible to interest rate<br />
movements.<br />
Currency risk<br />
Currency risk is also known as foreign exchange risk. It is the risk associated with investments that are<br />
denominated in foreign currencies. When the foreign currencies fluctuate in an unfavourable direction against the<br />
RM, the investments will face currency losses in addition to the capital gains/losses. This may lead to a lower<br />
NAV of the <strong>Fund</strong>.<br />
Country risk<br />
The foreign investments of the <strong>Fund</strong> may be affected by risks specific to the country, in which it invests. Such<br />
risks include changes in a country’s economic fundamentals, social and political stability, currency movements<br />
and foreign policies, etc. These may impact on the prices of listed securities in the particular country.<br />

VALUATIONS AND EXITING FROM INVESTMENT<br />
The valuation of the <strong>Fund</strong> is conducted at the end of each Business Day. The NAV of the <strong>Fund</strong> is determined by<br />
deducting the value of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s liabilities from the value of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s assets at a Valuation Point.<br />
The valuation of the <strong>Fund</strong> is in the Base Currency i.e. MYR. To determine the NAV of each Class, all the assets<br />
and liabilities of each Class will be converted to MYR using the prevailing exchange rate. The NAV per Unit of<br />
each Class will be the NAV of the <strong>Fund</strong> attributable to each Class divided by the number of Units in Circulation<br />
of that Class.<br />
The NAV per unit of <strong>AMB</strong>DTF for each class is available on our website (www.ambmutual.<strong>com</strong>.my), <strong>AMB</strong>’s<br />
office or any of its Distribution Channels.<br />
1.Pricing of units<br />
The Manager adopts the single pricing policy in calculating your investment. Single pricing equates to prices<br />
quoted and transacted on a single price.<br />
The price of Units is <strong>com</strong>puted on a Forward Pricing basis. As such, Units of each Class are transacted at the<br />
NAV per Unit of the respective Class at the next Valuation Point after receipt of the <strong>com</strong>pleted transaction<br />
request. Consequently, any changes in the underlying assets of the <strong>Fund</strong> will cause its Unit prices to vary. Any<br />
applicable sales charge shall be payable separately from the Purchase Price of Units.<br />
2. Procedure to Repurchase Units<br />
Repurchase of Units can also be made in part or entirety at any time by <strong>com</strong>pleting the repurchase form, which<br />
can be obtained at <strong>AMB</strong>’s office or any Distribution Channels. Repurchase request must be made in terms of<br />
Units due to Forward Pricing policy. Below are the required documents/forms to be submitted to repurchase<br />
Units:<br />
(a) Individual investor (single or joint applicants)<br />
i. Completed repurchase form.<br />
ii. Photocopy of identity card, birth certificate (if joint applicant is a minor) or passport (if necessary).<br />
5 Updated as at September 2014
(b) Corporate investor<br />
i. Completed repurchase form.<br />
ii. Board resolution or any other necessary authorisation (if necessary).<br />
Partial repurchase of Units is permitted provided the applicable minimum holding is maintained for the <strong>Fund</strong>.<br />
There is no restriction on frequency of repurchase and number of Units a Unit Holder can redeem subject to the<br />
applicable minimum holding.<br />
The Manager may elect not to permit a partial repurchase if the effect thereof would be that the Unit Holder<br />
holds less than the minimum holding applicable.<br />
3. Payment for Repurchase of Units<br />
(a) By cheque<br />
The Unit Holders will receive withdrawal proceeds payment by cheque payable to the Unit Holder's or<br />
jointholders' names only. The cheque will be mailed to the address of the Unit Holders based on the application<br />
form or as may be subsequently notified in writing to the Manager.<br />
Any charges incurred such as charges for outstation cheque will be borne by the Unit Holders.<br />
(b) Transfer to a bank account<br />
Payment for repurchase proceeds will be made via telegraphic transfer to Unit Holders’ respective foreign<br />
currency account.<br />
Unit Holders may give <strong>AMB</strong> an instruction in writing to transfer the repurchase proceeds to Unit Holders'<br />
nominated local bank account held in Unit Holders' own name. All bank charges for the transfer will be borne by<br />
the Unit Holders. The charge will be deducted from the repurchase amount before being paid to the Unit Holders’<br />
relevant bank account.<br />
Unit Holders are required to provide <strong>AMB</strong> with the relevant bank account details in order for <strong>AMB</strong> to proceed with<br />
the transfer request. It is possible for delays in the banking system to occur which are beyond our control. If the<br />
funds cannot be transferred, <strong>AMB</strong> shall draw a cheque payable to the Unit Holders.<br />
Unit Holders may give <strong>AMB</strong> instruction in writing to transfer the repurchase proceeds to the Unit Holders'<br />
nominated bank account overseas held in Unit Holders' own name. All bank charges for the transfer will be borne<br />
by the Unit Holders. The charge will be deducted from the repurchase amount before being paid to the Unit<br />
Holders’ relevant bank account.<br />
Note: No repurchase proceeds will be paid in cash under any circumstances.<br />
4. Unit Pricing & Cut-off Time for Repurchase of Units<br />
Applications to repurchase Units will be processed on the same Business Day if received by 2.30 p.m. The<br />
applicable repurchase price would be based on the NAV per Unit at the end of the Business Day on which the<br />
application to repurchase is received by the Manager. Any application received or deemed to have been<br />
received after this cut-off time would be considered as being transacted on the next Business Day and would be<br />
subjected to the Manager’s pricing on the next Business Day.<br />
The Manager will pay the net repurchase proceeds to the Unit Holder or the Unit Holder’s EPF account (where<br />
applicable) within 10 days from the receipt of the request to repurchase provided that all documentation are<br />
<strong>com</strong>plete.<br />
In the event of any technical difficulties beyond the Manager’s control or should the redemption request result in<br />
the sale of assets which cannot be liquidated at an appropriate price or on adequate terms and is as such not in<br />
the interest of the existing Unit Holders, redemption monies may be paid at such other period as may be<br />
permitted by the relevant authorities from time to time.<br />
